PROPERTY AND PROJECT CONTEXT
New Carrollton
New Carrollton is an incorporated Prince George's County city built around one of the region's few true multi-modal transit hubs — Metro's Orange Line, MARC commuter rail and Amtrak service all meet at New Carrollton station, with the Purple Line planned to follow.
A joint development agreement between WMATA, Prince George's County and private developers is turning the roughly 49 acres around the station into a mixed-use district planned for around 1,500 residential units, over a million square feet of office space, retail and a hotel, while the surrounding established neighborhoods retain their existing residential character.
The property location helps frame the conversation, while the project type, conditions and services involved help define what should be discussed next.

LOCAL CONSTRUCTION CONSIDERATIONS
Permitting and Jurisdiction in New Carrollton
New Carrollton issues its own building permits as an incorporated city, distinct from Prince George's County's countywide process, and active transit-oriented development around the station means commercial and multifamily activity here is unusually high for the county outside its largest municipalities.
Established residential pockets like West Lanham Hills sit close to the active redevelopment area and are planned to retain their existing character, so remodeling and addition work in those neighborhoods is scoped separately from the larger commercial and multifamily construction underway near the station.

WHY MOLE
Design and construction move through one coordinated process, from initial scope through the final walkthrough.
Residential and commercial capability sits within the same company, so property type doesn't limit which services are available.
Project scope is defined and reviewed before work begins, so decisions aren't made after construction is already underway.
Remodeling and roofing can be coordinated under one contractor when a project's scope calls for both.
The same process applies across Northern Virginia, Washington, D.C. and Maryland, regardless of jurisdiction.
